How much engine oil does the 10th-generation Accord use?

The 10th-generation Accord 1.5T model uses 3.5 liters, while the 2.0L hybrid version uses 4 liters. When adding engine oil, ensure that the oil level is between the min and max marks on the dipstick. The oil level should not be below the min mark or above the max mark. The 10th-generation Accord is equipped with three types of engines: a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, a low-power 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. In terms of body dimensions, the car measures 4893 mm in length, 1862 mm in width, and 1449 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830 mm.
I remember when driving my 10th-generation Accord 1.5T, each oil change required about 4 liters of oil. The manual states it's between 3.7 to 4.0 liters depending on the dipstick level. Adding too little accelerates engine wear, while overfilling may cause smoke and damage parts, so I always ask the mechanic to check. Using full synthetic 0W-20 oil is most suitable—fuel-efficient and durable, lasting 7,000-8,000 km before needing replacement. Regular maintenance extends engine life; I personally change it every six months, ensuring worry-free long trips. Daily driving requires attention to oil temperature, especially in summer when evaporation is faster—topping up promptly is key. This habit has saved me a lot on repair costs.
